Mooney's Singers In The Shower: The Live Final!

It’s all about the Splish Splash today on Mooney! We have our soap at the ready and our bottle of shampoo – and today we will discover the winner of Mooney’s RTÉ Big Music Week Singing in the Shower Competition!

Some of you auditioned live for us and some of you sent us one minute recordings made in the shower, and we had great fun listening to them all! We received HUNDREDS of entries but we have whittled it down to just EIGHT.

And those eight musical acts are here in the RTÉ Radio Centre, nervously waiting to perform in our shower. And we have a REAL shower, not just a sound effect! It is just outside Studio 7, a few yards of a walk, beside the gents toilets – and it is there that our contestants will battle it out to win a stunning Yamaha Clavinova digital piano valued at €2500 – and kindly sponsored by Waltons Music.

Niall Walton, of Waltons Music, with the Yamaha Digital Piano that one of our eight finalists will win!

Our judges today are Aideen Walton, Marketing Manager of Waltons Music and Paul Harrington, Eurovision Supremo and friend of Mooney.

And you, our listeners, will also be able to vote too - and we’ll tell you how you can do that later in the show!
